چکیده

A Path Relinking algorithm is proposed for the Bandwidth Coloring problem and the Bandwidth MultiColoring problem. It combines a population based relinking method and a tabu search based local search procedure. The proposed algorithm is assessed on two sets of 66 benchmark instances commonly used in the literature. Computational results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is highly competitive in terms of both solution quality and efficiency compared to the best performing algorithms in the literature. Specifically, it improves the previous best known results for 15 out of 66 instances, while matching the previous best known results for 47 cases. Some key elements of the proposed algorithm are investigated.

GRASP and path relinking for the matrix bandwidth minimization

In this article we develop a greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) for the problem of reducing the bandwidth of a matrix. This problem consists of finding a permutation of the rows and columns of a given matrix, which keeps the nonzero elements in a band that is as close as possible to the main diagonal. The proposed method may be coupled with a Path Relinking strategy to search f...

A Genetic Algorithm with Hill Climbing for the Bandwidth Minimization Problem

In this paper, we propose an integrated Genetic Algorithm with Hill Climbing to solve the matrix bandwidth minimization problem, which is to reduce bandwidth by permuting rows and columns resulting in the nonzero elements residing in a band as close as possible to the diagonal. Many algorithms for this problem have been developed, including the wellknown CM and GPS algorithms. Recently, Marti e...

A Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree Problem

The routing cost of a spanning tree in a weighted and connected graph is defined as the total length of paths between all pairs of vertices. The objective of the minimum routing cost spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree such that its routing cost is minimum. This is an NP-Hard problem that we present a GRASP with path-relinking metaheuristic algorithm for it. GRASP is a multi-start ...

Grasp with Path Relinking for the Three-index Assignment Problem

Abstract. This paper describes variants of GRASP (greedy randomized adaptive search procedure) with path relinking for the three index assignment problem (AP3). GRASP is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization. It usually consists of a construction procedure based on a greedy randomized algorithm and of a local search. Path relinking is an intensification strategy that explor...
